Beyond obvious practical value, this material offers students an excellent opportunity to revisit and rethink some crucial, fundamental college mathematics. * Choice * [T]his little book is a very important supplement to existing books on validated numerics. It is a must for researchers working in this field. ---G. Alefeld, Mathematical Reviews The book contains a lot of exercises, various small programs written in MATLAB code, and four sections with numerous problems provided for experimenting on a computer. It is written at an elementary level corresponding to its aims. But it is also a pleasure for specialists to leaf through the book. ---Gunter Mayer, Zentralblatt MATH This book is an essential resource for those entering this fast-developing field, and it is also the ideal textbook for graduate students and advanced undergraduates needing an accessible introduction to the subject. * World Book Industry *
